Exodus 27:1-7 ▼

1 [The LORD continued,] |Make an altar out of acacia wood. It should be 7 1/2 feet square, and 4 1/2 feet high.

2 Make a horn at each of its four corners. The four horns and the altar must be made out of one piece [of wood] covered with bronze.

3 |Make all the utensils for it out of bronze: pots for taking away the altar's ashes, also shovels, bowls, forks, and incense burners.

4 |Make a grate for it out of bronze mesh, and make a bronze ring for [each of] the four corners of the grate.

5 Put the grate under the ledge of the altar so that it comes halfway up the altar.

6 |Make poles out of acacia wood for the altar, and cover them with bronze.

7 The poles should be put through the rings on both sides of the altar to carry it.
